  In 
  the 
  following 
  synopsis 
  the 
  species 
  known 
  only 
  from 
  the 
  original 
  

   descriptions 
  are 
  marked 
  with 
  an 
  asterisk. 
  Pseudomorpha 
  argentine 
  

   Steinheil 
  is 
  omitted 
  because 
  of 
  the 
  impossibility 
  of 
  placing 
  it 
  by 
  the 
  

   original 
  description. 
  Complete 
  descriptions

  given 
  only 
  for 
  the 
  

   species 
  believed 
  to 
  be 
  undescribed.
